Analysis reveals export prices and Chinese income significantly impact chicken feet demand in China.
The aim of this study was to analyze the economic determinants of Brazilian chicken feet exports to China, in the period from 2015 to 2024, using the Vector Error Correction (VEC) model. The long-term results indicated that Chinese income and export prices have positive and significant impacts on chicken feet exports, while the exchange rate did not prove to be relevant in explaining the trade flow of the commodity. In the short term, the impulse response function highlights the positive effects of external income and export prices of chicken feet. External income increases Chinese demand for the Brazilian commodity, while product prices stimulate production growth for export. These findings reinforce the importance of Chinese demand and pricing as key vectors in the export dynamics.
